Exploring Disney: A Fairytale Ferry

The Transportation and Ticket Center is the hub of Disney World. This is where you can buy tickets to the parks or special events such as holiday parties, visit restrooms that tend to be overlooked, head to any of the theme parks, and hop on transportation to a variety of resorts such as monorails to the Contemporary and Grand Floridian or boats to Fort Wilderness. Once you’ve decided that you’re going to visit Magic Kingdom, you’ve got another decision to make — how to get there. You could grab the monorail and feel futuristic, or you could go for something a touch more quaint and old-fashioned – the ferry. Read more

Terrific Tuesdays: Transportation at Disney!

monorailA great reason to stay at Walt Disney World Resorts is the ability to leave the “real” world behind and let others do the “driving!” Not everyone enjoys this, but I see Disney Transportation as a ride in itself! Sure, it isn’t as exciting and doesn’t come with its own entertaining queue, but it does allow you to “chill” out between parks and not worry if you are going the right way to your next destination! On a recent trip I had so much fun taking selfies on each of our rides from park to park! Read more

Karen grew up in the Boston area and traveled to Disney World many times with her parents and sister. Always staying at the Fort Wilderness Cabins gave the trips a feeling of a home away from home. It also started the tradition of attending the Hoop Dee Doo Review on each trip! Somehow that show sparked her interest in the Disney College Program. Which she did in the fall of 2002, working as a hostess @ Captain Jacks in Downtown Disney. Now as an adult, Karen finds herself traveling to the parks on a yearly basis! Photography has always been a hobby of Karen’s, but over the past few years it has become her passion. It’s even taken her to her favorite place! The Make a Wish Foundation sent a family to Disney for a week and Karen was lucky enough to be their photographer of choice! She got to tag along and photograph their memories being made. She hopes to get that experience again someday! You can find more of Karen’s photography on her site www.KPportraits.com.

Cast Member’s Corner: It’s Fast, It’s Free, It’s Air Conditioned!

People tend to wonder what the best way to get around Walt Disney World is.  They wonder if getting a taxi is the best bet, or driving their own or rental car.  Some even wonder about those purple public transportation buses.  What most people may not realize though is that Disney has it’s own transportation.  The Disney buses, boats, and monorail.  You don’t have to stay on property at one of the many Disney resorts to take advantage of these methods of transportation either.
